Thanks for the great trip. I am glad Vicki was with you as every since you have been gone she has been with me. Today was St. Nick's Sale and the bake sale. I can tell you she was there today and enjoyed all the jokes and catty comments, I could almost see her laughing. Very few people are lucky enough to have a close friend. I have been pleased I have had both of you. Lucky me!

Dan, I love the turban. What an adventure you guys have had. Can't wait to see you and hear more first hand. You all look well and I can tell you are enjoying yourselves.

WOW!
What an exciting place! I especially liked the feel of the video. Good thing you didn't make a wrong turn! Dan, would you be allowed to wear the turban in public? Sure looks good on you (even though it's UK blue). Too bad you couldn't find one in IU red. Anxious to see you all! Lauren and susan

Fantastic!
We've been anxiously waiting for your Granada blog, even tho your whole trip descriptions have been absolutely wonderful - thanks so much for including us. My Great-great grandfather spent 3 years touring Spain in the 1870s and published 2 tedious volumes about it, but I was delightedd to pull it out and compare his descriptions with some of your Alhambra photos and imagine him being there with you, walking thru them, imagining with him sultanas bathing in those lovely pools. And he mentions in detail your plaque about the 777 years of moorish occupation. We're so glad to assume that you three have safely returned. Henry

Alhambra
Your pictures remind me of things my Mother talked about after her visit. She said it was too beautiful for words.

Knew that was coming.
Surprised Dublin wasn't mentioned, too. Good thing my poor navigation hasn't landed us in worse trouble.

Determination!
Nothing was going to stop you three explorers from finding the "Holy Grail" of port wine. Well done! I can't wait to learn what world class port tastes like. However, I wouldn't blame you if those bottles don't make it home.

Enjoying the blog
Hey guys, I haven't checked your blog in a while, and finally found some time to catch up. The pictures you posted of the Southwest are very impressive. I've only been to Phoenix, but my brief and limited time out there was very eye opening to me. Living here in the east I am so accustomed to seeing green everywhere, it was different to see the desert and the lack of the green landscapes. Also, it was very different to see mostly flat land where your field of vision stretches to the horizon. Very different from the rolling hills of home. Hope all is going well, it looks like yall are really seeing some interesting and historic sites and having a good time.

wow
Stunning stuff. Very jealous. Sad news from Chicago: The coffee shop we went to the morning you left has completely abandoned whatever that brewing process was and are using the Chemex system. Coffee is still good, but not nearly as odd. They must have changed their system within a few days of our visit.

We too enjoyed most of the free shows. But I have never seen a place that uses as much energy. Our best to all of you.
